Answer and Explanation:
The journal entry are as follows
1. Interest expense $214,650
To Cash $214,650
(Being the first interest payment is recorded)
The computation is shown below
= $4,770,000 × 9% × 6 months ÷ 12 months
= $214,650
For recording this we debited the interest expense as it increased the expenses while on the other hand the cash is paid which reduced the cash balance so it is credited
2. Cash $530,000
To Bond payable $530,000
(Being the cash sale of bond is recorded)
For recording this we debited the cash as cash is received that increased the cash balance and at the same time we credited the bond payable
Answer:
B. Risk of accounting loss: $230,000; Off-balance sheet risk: $0
Explanation:
Accounting loss occurs due to credit provided and the market risk associated with it, already the company has provided for $20,000 un-collectible debts, now the company can have maximum of $250,000 - $20,000 = $230,000 of loss.
Talking about off-balance sheet loss, it will be zero, as off-balance sheet loss occurs only when there is some statutory or non-statutory obligation attached to any of the assets, which is not stated in accounts. Since no obligation is attached for receiving such amount from accounts receivables.
Thus, correct answer is
B. Risk of accounting loss: $230,000; Off-balance sheet risk: $0

Explanation:
A contingent liability is an amount that will need to be charged in the future but there are still outstanding problems that only make it a possibility.

Answer:
Required Reserves
Explanation:
Fractional banking is a banking system where a portion of customer's deposits is kept as reserves while remaining portion is lent out. The amount kept as reserves is determined by the required reserve ratio set by the Central bank.
Reserves is the total amount of a bank's deposit that is not given out as loans
Reserves = Deposits - outstanding loans
$100,000 - $70,000 = $30,000
there are 2 types of reserves
1. Required reserves is the percentage of deposits required of banks to keep as reserves by the central bank
Required reserves = reserve requirement x deposits
0.2 x $100,000 = $20,000
2. Excess reserves is the difference between reserves and required reserves
$30,000 - $20,000 = $10,000
